<p>Longtime Democratic strategist James Carville took a page out of George Bernard Shaw&#8217;s &#8220;Pygmalion&#8221; and gave it a sickening twist, claiming on Wednesday that he could recruit a &#8220;convicted pedophile&#8221; and coach that candidate to a win over a Republican.</p>
<p>Carville — the brains behind former President Bill Clinton&#8217;s &#8220;it&#8217;s the economy, stupid&#8221; — cracked the off-color &#8220;joke&#8221; on his &#8220;Politics War Room&#8221; podcast in the wake of sweeping victories for Democrats in Tuesday&#8217;s elections. The joke was primarily a reference to Virginia Attorney General-elect Jay Jones, who won his election despite the revelation that he had once texted a colleague about wishing violence on a political opponent.</p>

<p>Laughing as he laid out his plan, Carville said, &#8220;I’m personally going to find a convicted pedophile and run him in a race just to see if he could beat a Republican. I’m not sure. I’m not going to say that a convicted pedophile could win.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And by the way, the guy that was running against [Jones] ran a pretty good campaign,&#8221; Carville said, speaking of incumbent Attorney General Jason Miyares (R-VA). &#8220;He ran ads &#8230; if you think &#8230; the most interesting thing, drum roll, I&#8217;m going to give y&#8217;all the most interesting piece of news of the cycle, even more interesting than Bucks County. The Republican legislator who released the texts lost. And Jay won.&#8221;</p>
<p>Carville continued to laugh as he added, &#8220;I mean it&#8217;s just — just a little tidbit. Hey, you got some baggage out there with Trump, people. Just know that.”</p>
<p>Carville made headlines recently when he argued that President Donald Trump&#8217;s &#8220;collaborators&#8221; should be <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/james-carville-fantasizes-about-trump-collaborators-paraded-in-the-streets-like-post-war-nazis">treated like Nazis</a> in post-war Europe, and be paraded through the streets in orange jumpsuits with their heads shaved so that the people could spit on them.</p>
